Default Paint code help

I have searched the forums and around the interwebs but I can't seem to find paint code info and I keep finding different names for the same colors...any help is appreciated. I'm trying to identify this green.

I happen to have the dealer brochures for both the 2000 and 2001 DIIs. The same two greens were offered both years - the lighter green was Kent Green, and the darker green was Epsom Green.

But, I think body shops may be able to confirm the paint code using the VIN.

Thank you!! This helps a lot. I figured VIN was enough too but my body shop ended up trying to tell me that it was the lighter almost teal colored green that the 03 and 04s came in.

Is your paint code sticker missing or unreadable? I don’t remember where on the D2 but either on door or in the engine bay.

to be honest, I didn't try hard enough to find where it was but guessed that it might be inaccurate because the car has definitely been in some sort of accident as there is major evidence that the radiator core support came from another car. So I'm not sure what came on this car and what was painted but from something else. Just thought it would be easier to get an accurate color name/code from someone here. I also thing the car came from Canada or at least at one point was up there.

You might have luck figuring out the paint color by running your vin through a decoder like this one: https://www.vindecoderz.com/EN/Land%20Rover

this was helpful too! thank you. found some interesting info about repairs and it did have the paint code in there as well. unfortunately, they require you to sign up and register for any details.
